FAQs

Do I have to bring my printed ticket to the event?

No. Once you register, above, your name goes onto a guest list that we will have at the door. Simply tell us your name when you arrive, check your coats, and join the party.

What are my transport/parking options getting to the event?

Revival is located at the corner of College Street and Shaw Ave (one block east of Ossington). By TTC: The College Streetcar West stops at Shaw. OR Take the Southbound bus from Ossington Station to College and walk one block east. There is parking in the lot behind the club and on adjacent side streets.

My child can now take a few steps, does s/he still qualify as a Non-Walker?

Our definition of "non-walker" is a reveler between 0-2 years old who spends most of the show in a caregivers' arms. Giving them a free ticket helps us anticipate the size and shape of our audience.

My child is 8 (or above), can s/he come to Totsapalooza?

The performances by Julia Donaldson, The Bicycles, Movement Lab and The Gruffalo appeal to kids of all ages. Importantly, though, the activities and crafts are designed for kids between 2-7.
